5. You can get 3 frozen pizzas from Kroger right now for $20.25. At Meijer,5 frozen pizzas cost $26. Use unit rate to explain which choice is a betterbargain.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The number of frozen pizzas at Kroger is 3 for $20.25. So, to get the price per pizza:

`\begin{gathered} \text{Price for 1 pizza at Kroger = }(20.25)/(3) \\ =\text{ 6.75} \end{gathered}`

While at Meijer, 5 frozen pizzas cost $26. So,

`\begin{gathered} \text{Price for 1 pizza at Meijer = }(26)/(5) \\ \text{Calculate} \\ =5.2 \end{gathered}`

Therefore, frozen pizzas at Meijer are cheaper. So it is a better bargain.
